Last year, I carried bags of wildflower seeds on my walks to and from work and sowed them on to the empty spaces along my route. The results were modest, but measurable. I'm doing it again this year. Here are a few of the spaces I've "flower bombed." I'll report back later this summer and provide you with some mouseover before-and-after photos of the results. Oh, and happy Passover everyone. Next year in Jerusalem.
